    Hello all,
    I'm looking for Binkley 2.60 or newer that will work under win98. Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can freq or otherwise
    obtain a copy?

    The BTXE line comes in Win32 versions that work with Win98. However, if you are
    also running a BBS there's a challenge with port passing. WinFOSSIL is one solution.

    Hello, Roy...

    For what it's worth, I ran the DOS version of Bink under Windows for many years, using BNU and X00 at various times.

    I never had any problems using the NTCOMM version with ADF.

    Under Win9x? It would work under NT, the problem is that the batch command processor for Win9x is 16-bit.

    I always suspected it would work under WinBatch, but never got around to trying
    it since I didn't run a BBS.
